  • 1 Mbyte Chip-RAM Für Alle
    1 MByte Chip-RAM für alle Wer oft mit Grafikprogrammen arbeitet, hat's sicher schon erlebt: Während einer Operation, z.B. dem Ausschneiden eines Bildteils, alarmiert die Meldung, daß der vorhandene Speicher nicht ausreicht und die Operation abgebrochen wird. Und das obwohl der Amiga mit einer zusätzlichen Speicherkarte aufgerüstet wurde. Der Grund für die Fehlermeldung ist einfach: Die RAM-Karte wird vom Amiga als Fast-RAM ins System eingebunden. Grafikprogramme wie DPaint benötigen zum effektiven Arbeiten aber viel Chip-RAM. Chip-RAM heißt der Teil des Speichers, auf den die Custom-Chips für Sound und Grafik per DMA (Direct Memory Access = direkter Speicherzugriff) zugreifen können. Das Fast-RAM liegt außerhalb dieses Bereichs. Ältere Amiga-Modelle können auch nur 512 KByte Chip-RAM ansprechen. Die Ursache liegt im älteren Agnus 8371 oder an einem nicht voll aktivierten 8372A. Mit etwas Löterfahrung und Werkzeug können Sie Ihrem Amiga zu mehr Chip-RAM verhelfen. Sie können Ihren Amiga aufschrauben und die Typenbezeichnung des Chips ablesen (der Agnus-Chip ist das quadratische IC, meist ist auch ein entsprechender Platinenaufdruck vorhanden). Wenn Sie die Platinenrevision Ihres Amigas wissen, läßt sich auch daraus auf den Agnus-Typ schließen. Die Platinenrevision finden Sie beim Amiga 500 rechts vor dem Diskettenlaufwerk und beim Amiga 2000 links vorne in der Ecke. Oft wird die Nummer von einem Aufkleber verdeckt, den Sie erst entfernen müssen. Findet sich beim Amiga 500 an der angegebenen Stelle keine Bezeichnung, so handelt es sich um ein Board der Revision 3. Die Tabelle »Platinenrevisionen« zeigt eine Liste der Platinenrevisionen und deren technische Daten. Platinenrevisionen Modell Amiga 500 Amiga 500 Amiga 2000 Amiga 2000 Platine Rev.

As the desired character for each column passes the print position, a hammer strikes the paper from the rear and presses the paper against the ribbon and the drum, causing the desired character to be recorded on the continuous paper.
